Using the GearWrench 80748D socket is straightforward. First, make sure you've selected the right socket size for your fastener. Just slide the socket onto your drive tool and attach it to the fastener. Turn the tool to tighten or loosen the fastener. When using, avoid applying excessive force as it might damage the socket or the fastener. Store the socket in a dry place to prevent rust. After each use, clean it with a cloth to keep the full - polish chrome finish looking good. If there's any dirt or debris inside the socket, use a small brush to clean it out. And always double - check that the markings match your fastener's requirements to ensure proper use.
